Top 200 List - July 10th, 2015

Top 200 List

It has been over a month since I ran my top 200 list. As a reminder to my new readers (are there any?) I have a spreadsheet that replicates extremely closely the official MFI top 50 lists.

I get a few more on my list as I suspect they throw some from other countries out, there may be other reasons (like I retain health insurers and MFI clearly pitches them). But virtually all of the official top 50 are in my top 80, so correlation is very tight.

My list is in descending order. I also show dividend yield, though I'd encourage anyone using the list to double check those as Yahoo Finance is not the most reliable source. So without further ado, here is the list:
